Hey need some advise on this stopping power. I have a 2010 Altima sedan with some mods done and I'm planning on upgrading the brake system now. I have a set of 20 x 8.5 wheels all around and I plan on going to 9, so clearance isn't a problem. My challenge is I have a set of 1990 300zx calipers I plan on putting on the car but no rotors to match.
Can someone recommend what or where I can find something remotely close to the rotors that might fit my application? Thanks

What are you trying to achieve with the brake upgrade?

Reason I ask is because I found the OEM braking system in the 4th gen Altima to be quite capable of handling the car, and even moreso with OEM pads, rotors, and fluids upgraded.

I don't know that I'd go through the trouble of swapping calipers, etc without trying and OEM upgrade first. You could even get some stainless steel braided brake lines (stillen sells them), and you might be surprised at the extra response and stopping power with all those things upgraded.
